Tisk Tisk?...Why? I'm not about QUANTITY. I'm about QUALITY...and if EVERYONE has them, then it's not so special, now is it?

Sasha - Due to the Holiday season and whatnot, I won't be able to nail down a price...but I'll have it soon...

Richie - We're looking into it...the biggest thing is that we need donor headlight units in order to work out all the details of the disassembly...I don't want to experiment on someone's actual headlights and ruin them...I'd rather experiment on a non-functional/damaged one

GSIntensive - Well there is ONE GS that has this setup on it right now...my GS will have it once I get it back from the body shop (gettin' the body kit installed)...I'll get some pictures of the other GS...

Godfather,

May I ask what body kit is being installed now? Are you selling the one you had previously? If so, I have first dibs. Anyways, if you don't want anyone to know, pm me Ican keep a secret.

RU-INAW, I believe you were reading a post from December 22th of last year, when Manaray got his current kit installed . Manaray, do you remember how you removed the headlight cover from the backing? Did you do the oven trick? If so what temp setting and duration? Thanks.

Heheh...I just saw your reply Lex400sc...sorry about that...

Actually, a heat gun was used. The seperation wasn't the prettiest I've seen/done but the housing was broken anyways so we didn't care...I have two more broken housings so I'm going to experiment with that...

What happen to our Japanese contact with the Q45 lights in his GS? I'm curious to see how he did and how the results (of the seams) turned out...

Also very interested in that mod....I wonder if I just ordered the Q45 headlights and tried to rig it up?
